„ (Copy.) ' Police Office, Wellington, March 26, 1845. Daniel Wakefield being sworn, states — I am a barrister at Wellington. Last evening about ten o'clock, I was in the Billiard Room at Barrett's Hotel, when Mr. Samuel Revans came into the room, and in the presence of several persons said — " I have long sought you to tell you that you are a liar, a scoundrel, and a coward." I made him no reply, and he shortly afterwards left the room. I have since been informed that the said Samuel Revans intends to assault me, and I fear some bodily injury from him; I therefore pray that the said Samuel Revans may be bound in recognizances to keep the peace. I swear that I gave the said Samuel Revans no provocation whatever for such conduct. (Signed) D. Wakefield. Sworn before me this 26th day of March, 1845. (Signed) A. E. MacDonoqh, C.P.M.

Provocation is denied in the above deposition, but I solemnly affirm and declare it was given ; it was of the most unpardonable nature ; and that it was supported by the utterance, to me, by Mr. D. Wakefield, twenty- four hours afterwards, of gross and deliberate falsehoods. Samuel Revans.

I was the only witness present on the occasions to which Mr. Revans refers, and I solemnly affirm and declare to the truth of the circumstances to which he has made allusion. James Smith. Wellington, March 28, 1845.
